Ileforo Southern Commercial Congress
in Mobile, Deferring to Policy
TToward Mexico and South American
Itcpuhlies.
The following is President Wilson's
ddress, which was delivered at Moile
before the Southern Commercial

ot neod to speak for the South. She
as perhaps acquired tho gift of
peaking for herself. 1 conic because
want to speak of our present and
rospectivo relations with our neighors
to the south.
"I deemed it a public duty as well
s a personal pleasure to ho hero to
xpres8 for myself and for the govrnnient
I represent the welcome wo
-11 feel to those who represent the
latin-Ainerienn States. Tho future,
ulies and gentlemen, is going to be
ory different for this hemisphere
*om the past. These states lying to
ic south of us, which have always
nnr* /vim 1. t ? ' *
ovu w ii i llt'lHIIUUIH, Will now 1)0
rawn closer to us by innumerable
es, and 1 hope, chief of all, by the
e of a common understanding.
"Interest does not tie nations to2ther.
It sometimes separates them;
ut sympathy and understanding do
nito them. And 1 believe that by this
ew route that is just about to bo
aened, while we physically rut two
mtlnents asunder, we spiritually
nite them. This is a spiritual union
hich we seek, I wonder if you reale,
I wonder if your imaginations
rive boen filled with the significance
the tides of commerce.
( "Theso great tides, which have
>en running along parallels of lattude
will now swing southward
hwart parallels of lattitude,
id that opening gate at the Isthmus
a Panama will open the world to a
'mincrce that she has not known
j\fore?a commerce of thought and
mpathy between North and South;
id the Latin-American States which
their disadvantage, have been off
o main lines, will now be on the
ilin lines. I feel that these gentleen
honoring us with their presence
-day will presently find that some
^trt, at any rate, of the centre of
e<avity of the world has shifted. Do
"ill realize that New York, for ex^riple,
will bo nearer the western
dluBt of South America than she is
to tho eastern coast of South
?*nerica?
at"There is one peculiarity about tlie
atory of tho Latin-American States
Cliich I am sure they are keenly
lioare of. You hear of concessions to
gireign capitalists in Latin-America,
gibu do not hear of concessions to
trreign capitalists in tho United
toates. They are not granted .conteosions.
They aro invited to make
tra/estments. Tho work is ours,
w<?>ugh they aro welcome to invest in
; Wo do not ask them to supply
ca^ capital and do the work. Tt is an
cavitation not a privilege; and States
gujU aro obliged, because their terriaery
does not lie within tho main
buld of modern enterprise and acTh(H,
to grant concessions aro in this
tiotidition: That foreign interests are
y to dominate ilieir domestic af- '

heading their interest, whether it
squares with our interest or not. it
is a very perilous thing to determine
the foreign policy of a nation in the
terms of material interest, it not
only is unfair to those with whom
you are dealing, but it is degrading
on the part of your own actions.
Comprehension must be tho soil in
which shall grow all the fruits of
friendship; because there is a reason
and a compulsion lying behind
all this which is nearer than anything
else to the thoughtful men of America.
I mean the development of constitutional
liberty in the world. Human
rights, national integrity and
against material interests. That,
ladles and gentlemen, Is tho issue
I which we now have to face.
"I want to take this occasion to
say that the United States will never
again seek one additional foot of territory
by conquest. She will devote
herself to showing that she knows
how to make honorable and fruitful
I use of tho territory she has. And
| she must regard it as ono of the duties
of friendship to see that from
no quarter are material interests
made superior to human liberty and
national opportunity. 1 say tliis, not
\vith a single thought that any one
will gainsay it, hut merely to fix in
our consciousness what our real relationship
with tbo rest of America
is. It is the relationship of a family
of mankind devoted to the development
or true constitutional liberty. |
We know that that is the soil out of
which the best enterprise springs.
Wo know that this is a cause which
we are making in common with them
because we have had to make it for
ourselves.
"Reference has been made here
to-day to some of the problems which
confront us as a nation. What is the
heart of till our national problems?
is it that we have seen tbo hand of
material interest some times about
to close upon our dearest interests
and possessions? We have seen material
interests threaten constitution
al freedom In America. Therefore,
we will now know how to sympathize
with those in America who have to
content with that, not only within
their borders, hut from outside their
borders also. 1 know what the response
of the thought and heart of
America will he to a program like
that, because America was created to
realize a program like that. This is
not America because it is rich. This
is not America because it has set up
for a great population great opportunities
of material prosperity.
America is a name which sounds in
the ears of men everywhere as a synonym
with individual opportunity,
because a synonym of individual liberity.
I would rather belong to a
poor nation that was free than to a
rich nation that had ceased to be in
love with liberty.
"Rut we shall not bo poor if we
love liberty, because the nation that
loves liberty truly sets every man
free to do his best and be his best,
and that means the release of all the
splendid energies of a great people
who think for themselves. A nation
of employees can not bo free any
more than a nation of employers can
be.
"So in emphasizing the points
which must unite us in sympathy and
in spiritual interest with the Latin
/MuiTic-.in people, wo arc only emphasizing
tho points of our own life, and
we should prove ourselves untrue to
our own traditions if we proved ourselves
untrue friends to-day. Do not
think, therefore, gentlemen, that
questions of the day are more questions
of policy and diplomacy. They
are shot through with the principles
of life.
"We dare not turn from the principle
that morality and not expediency
is tho thing that must guide us,
and that we will never condone inequity
because it is most convenient
to do so. So it -corns to mo that this i
Is a day of infinite hope, of confidence i

At the close of the Mexican elections
Sunday the indications were
that not sufllcient votes had been
cast in Mexico to constitute a legal
choice for the presidency to succee 1
(Jen. Iluerta. No ollicial .announcement
was made Sunday night, but it
was unolllcially estimated tluit less
than 10,000 of tho 80,000 eligible
voters in the republic went to the
polls. It would ho no surprise if
Congress, the members of which also
were voted for Sunday, declared the
election void when that body is organized
and revises the returns.
The leaders of the Catholic party
claimed a long lead, although they
were unable to estimate tho number
of votes polled for their candidates,
Federico (Jamboa and (Jen. Kascon.
If this claim Is correct, it is generally
thought that (Jen. Felix Diaz and
Senor Uequena are second. The Liberal
candidate, Manuel Calero and
Flores Magon, had no printed tickets
at the pollings places, their constituents
being obliged to write their
names on blank ballots. President

85,000 men, its alleged present number,
to 150,000. Since the Deputies
and Senators are not subject to the
election provisions governing the
presidential elections, it is said that
the choice for Congress is assured.
It is assumed that the Catholic party
will have a majority in both Chamber
and Senate.
The elections promised by the Provisional
President, Oen. 1 Inert a, were
held and there was no semblance of
disorder in any quarter of the city.
A few patrols were on the streets,
hut neither police nor troops had any
hut the usual duties to perform. The
polling places opened at 0 o'clock in
the morning and remained until
noon when the attendants closed the
booths until 5 o'clock in the afternoon
for the mid-day meal. They
were reopened at 3 and closed again
at 5 o'clock.
From 3 to 5 o'clock oflieials, one of
whom was designated "president",
were in attendance at each polling
place. These oflieials represented the
various parties and assisted in the 1
preparation of the ballot when necessary.
hut offered no coercion or sue
sestion as to how the applicant
should vote. i
The election officials appeared to 1
he a representative class of citizens?
small business men, railroad employees
and shopkeepers. So far as (
could he ascertained no government 1
employees served. Each polling place '
had a table on which were spread '
tickets of the various candidates. A
From these the voter made his selec- '
tion, signed, folded and delivered it 1
to the president, who deposited it in f
the presence of the voter in the bal- c
lot box.
Ballot boxes consisted of all sorts
of receptacles from a pasteboard
shoe box to a plush-covered jewel
casket, or a glass jar borrowed from
a neighboring drug store. There was
ao secrecy about the voting. As the.
vote was deposited the name was '
checked on the registration list pre-1

visits of a designated ofllcial in the i
houses in his jurisdiction. Tt was
lot left to the volition of the citizen 1<
o register his name on the list if he ?
ivero entitled by residence, age and ri
ither requirements to cast a vote.
Manuel Calero, Liberal candidate, a
vho was onco ambassador at Wash- ?
ngton, did not vote. Instead he took
4 V
lis family early in the day into the
ountry. Federico Gamboa, candi- n
late of tho Catholic party, on the ni
ither hand, cast a ballot for Senor ^
^alero. Neither of these candidates *
ared to express an opinion as to
vhether a sufficient number of balots
had been deposited to make the
lections effective. Few of those who 01
rent to the polls took the trouble to
ote for r*iher Senators or Deputies.

Kegisti ntinn tor Voting in Primary
? Tax ami School Kefornis.
Lowndes J. Browning of Sedalia,
in Union County, announced Thursday
that he would be a candidate for
governor of South Carolina in the
Democratic primary next summer.
Mr. Browning has been in public life
in South Carolina for a number of
years, having served three terms in
the house of representatives. IIo was
chairman of the ways and means
committee during the session of
1 ill 1-' 1 2. lie was not a candidate for
re-election to the house in 1913. Mr.
Browning has been a farmer all his
life and is at present president of the
Union County Farmers' union. He
was president of the Union County
Fair association for two years, declining
re-election.
Mr. Browning issued the following
outline of his platform:
"1 will bo a candidate for governor
in 1914 in the Democratic primary.
Summarized brieily, my platform is
as follows:
"First. Every white Democrat
should bo a'lowed to vote, provided
ho will qualify himself to maintain
the action of the Democratic primary
in the general election. mnn
should ho allowed to participate in
the naming of a Stato and county
ticket as a Democrat and then support
some other party in the general
election for president and vice-president,
as was done in 1912 by certain
alleged members of tho Progressive
party. "
"Second. I believe in tho thorough
reform of our financial system.
If properly regulated, tho personal
property tax can and should ho eliminated.
Under our present system, a
citizen can not hide his household
and kitchen furniture, his live stock
if a farmer, his stock in goods if a
merchant, but ho can and very frequently
does hide his personal property
if it is principally invested In
mortgages, stocks, bands and the
like. This tax should be a tax on
income and thus you will reach those
most able to pay and those who receivo
the greatest protection from
govern ment.
"Third. I shall advocate a thorough
reform of our school system.
The constitutional school tax should
be made a State fund instead of a
county fund. Thus the richer counties
would aid the poorer counties,
1 ?tl i' 1 ?
una an uie cniKircn of our State
would receive equal benefit. Each
school district should, as at present,
be allowed to supplement this State
fund by local levies for their individual
benefit. The State, however,
should guarantee that each school
should run a certain period and if
the present constitutional school tax
does not raise sufficient revenue for
this purpose, the Stato levy should
ho increased.
"Fourth. I believo in ?a thorough
reform and simplification of our Judicial
procedure, whereby justice may
be obtained in a reasonable length of
time. I am suro that the present
ingestion for our dockets could be
-elieved, were there a commission of
hroe, whose decisions would be final
is regards all damage suits. This
vould be hard on a few lawyers, but
t would benefit greatly the poor emiloyees
who bring such suits against
'omporations, provided the decisions
>f this commission be final.
"Fifth. T shall advocate tho enorcement
of all laws on the statute
looks. If they are good, the Stato
rill reap the benefit. Tf they are
ad. the necessttv fnr Umin ...:n
. w . V ? . V 11 1 1 Will
to more quickly realized.
"Sixth. Somo candidates profess
o ignoro the fact that two political
actions do exist within tho Demoratlc
party of this State. With equal
ustieo they could deny that the sun '
? the luminary of the day. T belong
a that wing of the Democratic party '
f this State which believes in a rep- '
csentativo form of government
aunded on the principles of our State '
nd national constitutions, and am
pposed to 'boss rule' as exemplified '
y lluerta in Mexico and various (
losses' in this and other States. T {
m the candidate of no 'boss* nor
ny newspaper, hut am asking for (
le office of governor on my record,
believe that tho executive, legisla- !
vo and judicial departments of our 1
ivernment are supreme in their re- t
motive spheres. Tho authority of (
io should not be encroached upon 1
/ that of another. >
nmi
i nere are numerous minor re- r
irrns that T might mention, but this i
brief outlines the principles upon 1
hirh I shall ash the support of my a
irty as a candidate for governor in v
io Democratic primary in 1014."

WILSON AT MOBILE!

PKkSlDtNT SPEAKS PLAINLY OF
FOREIGN AFFAIRS
WANTS MORAL AICTORY
Although Making no Specific Heferonce
to Mexico His Meaning Towards
That Country Was Evident
?Outlines Foreign Policy of the
United States.
While avoiding any mention specifically
of Mexico or any European influence
connected with the Mexican
situation President Woodrow Wilson
Monday delivered a speech at Mobile
apparently freighted with significance
which served to point with
further directness the policy of tlie
United States, not only toward Mex- ico,
but toward all Central and South
American republics.
Mr. Wilson spoke before the Southern
Commercial Congress and the big
audience which heard him cheered
him frequently. The President smil
ingly took his hearers into his confidence
when he explained he must
speak "with moderation and without
indiscretion". His speech can bo
read in another column.
A score of South American and
Lat in-American diplomats sat just
behind the President while he spoke
and many of his remarks wero addressed
in conversational tones to
them. There were those in the audience
who thought the President might
take advantage of the opportunity
afforded by his speech to say
something regarding the Mexican
crisis. Mr. Wilson, however, spoke
only in general terms, but many of
his sentences were pointed with a meaning
so clear as to leave little 1
doubt of Ibntr
"Material interests"?a phrase
much In use Internationally of late in
characterizing the attitude of foreign
nations toward Mexico?frequently
was exployed hv the President. He declared
the American republic long 1
had suffered from the hard bargains
forced upon them by concessionaries
seeking' "material interests" In the
countiles affected. The President declared
that through motives of
"mortality and not expediency" the |
United States desired to help the T.at- 1
in-American republics to "an emancipation
from the subordination which
has been inevitable to foreign enterprise."
The President's speech was uttered
with a confidence which bespoke Ithe
dominant part the United States 1
expects to play in the future of the
American republics. "The United
States will never again seek to obtain
one additional foot of territory by
conquest," ho declared amid applause.
Mr. Wilson spent six busy hours in
Mobile. He arrived early in the It
morning and was taken jointly in
hand by the members of the Southern
Commercial Congress and citizens
of the city. Tie was break fastpd
